2. Saute leeks garlic and half the rosemary, about 8 min (in a Tbs EVOO)
3. Arrange 1/3 sweet potatoes over bottom of pan, overlapping slightly, spread half leek mixture on top. Repeat. Drizzle broth over, cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes.
4. stir breadcrumbs, rosemary and EVOO together, remove foil, sprinkle with bread crumbs and bake 15 more minutes.
**** Try adding nutritional yeast to each layer and make the bread crumbs from scratch and add nutritional yeast. Gonna be delicious!

Leeks have a bit of a different flavor for me. I think I'd use yellow onions instead of green if given the choice. Lemme know how it goes?
